Pressure injuriesDamage to the skin and the tissue under it, caused by pressure or rubbing, often over bony areas like hips and heels.
Restrictive practicesAny action that limits a person’s rights or freedom of movement. It should only ever be a last resort. This measure doesn’t count medicines.
Unplanned weight lossLosing weight without trying, which can lead to other health problems.
Falls and major injuryA major injury means a broken bone, a dislocated joint or a serious head injury.
MedicinesTaking 9 or more medicines at once, and antipsychotic medicines. Antipsychotics given for a diagnosed psychosis aren’t counted.

Each result is the share of the home’s residents, compared with the national figure the government publishes.

There are some lovely people here to care for your loved ones, but also some who don't care about their job. The Lifestyle coordinator, Ashley has taken around 5 months off. This really affects the residents as they need something to do.
